I interned on the corporate team full-time, and it was a blast. I worked very closely with my supervisor, and he guided me through all types of tasks that I was interested in, from writing press releases to pitching to reporters. I felt very comfortable approaching anyone in the office, even other co-workers who were on a different team, whether I had a question about a client or just wanted to share a funny story. I met numerous times throughout the summer with the internship coordinators and my supervisor to check-in and make sure I was enjoying my time. From ...

My experience at Schneider Associates offered me the opportunity to fully engage in a marketing communications and public relations firm. From the first day, I was pleased to be assigned real projects that directly involved me in client accounts.

In reality, I believe it's a firm facing a midlife crisis.It appears as though the focus has shifted from adept PR to squeezing money out of their clients. Meetings were often less concerned with effective methods and more focused on ways to incrementally add on to client's billing. The atmosphere is as friendly as a crypt. Upper level employees are extremely egotistical and barely approachable, unless you treated them with intense reverence. ...

I worked on the consumer team at SA but I was able to work with all of the other teams at one point or another which helped me learn even more. All of the employees offer their help and want to get to know you. They have high expectations for precision but they encourage you with a smile. I worked closely with my supervisor by creating media lists, creative mailers, news clips, helping with our client's event over the summer and many brainstorming sessions. We had four helpful intern workshops, like an info session about social ...
